If you’re not a fan of keeping the Xbox One controller with you on the couch when watching TV, but don’t want to shout at your television to change the channel, Microsoft has announced the Xbox One Media Remote to help you out.

A separate remote control for a console that can be almost entirely controlled with a wave of the hand or a spoken word may not seem like a necessary item, but there’s plenty of users out there who disagree. The Xbox One didn’t offer a remote control at launch, despite being positioned as the all-in-one entertainment console that you can plug your cable box into. The setup really demands a universal remote of sorts, and soon it appears you’ll be able to buy one.

The remote is expected to give the user control over volume and a dedicated One Guide button that gives you channel control as long as you are in a country that supports it.

The controller is backlit and motion sensitive, so as soon as you pick it up the keys will start to glow. You’ve got basic media control functions that will apply to all of the video apps for the console, as well as the menu buttons seen on the Xbox One controller. It’s pretty much exactly what you would expect from an Xbox One media remote, complete with a design that matches the standard Xbox controller.

As soon as the controller is available in stores and online, you’ll be able to add it to your Xbox One arsenal for $25. It basically puts everything you would normally do with your voice into a package that is significantly smaller than the Xbox One controller. And if you kick or drop it off the sofa, it’s not going to accidentally change the channel, or worse, get damaged like the standard controller could.
